just a nit; "GPL" is a _license_, not a _copyright_. The copyright to
this code is owned by you; you choose to release it under the GPL
license. Sometimes, this matters :). Ah, you do have this right on the
web page.

In an example, you have:

  Put(reg,To_Key("A_Key"),"A Value"); -- A Key in the default section
  
Why is the conversion To_Key necessary? Surely it could be done by Put?
